[English]

White flower, cinnamon on my teeth

And I'm sitting at the stoplight in northern town

I feel lucky

I drive somewhere out of range, I don't know where

White noise coming out of my brain

Turns off for nothing

Rockefella, my umbrella

God, I love you, baby

Storyteller, us forever

Is my favorite song

You've been acting pretty restless

Dancing like the young and restless

And I'm obsessed with it

Candy necklaces

You've been acting pretty reckless

Dancing like the young and restless

And I'm obsessed with this

All his candy necklaces

Sitting on the sofa, feeling super suicidal

Hate to say the word, but, baby, hand on the Bible

I do feel like it's you, the one who's bringing me down

Thought that we were cool, we were kicking it like Tribe Called Quest

You're the best, but, baby, you've been bringing me down

I can see it now

Rockafella, my umbrella

God, I love you, baby

Fortune-teller, favorite ever

That's the story of us

You've been acting pretty restless

Dancing like the young and restless

And I'm obsessed with this

Candy necklaces

I think that we should address this

Acting like the young and restless

I'm obsessed with this

All his candy necklaces

We've been acting pretty restless

Dancing like the young and restless

I'm obsessed with this

Candy necklaces

Candy necklaces

Candy necklaces

Candy necklaces

Candy necklaces (mm)

Candy necklaces (mm, hmm)

Candy necklaces (I'm obsessed with this)

Candy necklaces

Candy necklaces

Candy necklaces ('cause I'm obsessed with this)

Candy necklaces (mm)

Candy necklaces

Candy necklaces

Candy necklaces

Candy necklaces, oh
